A pithy yet deep introduction to Einstein's general theory of
relativity Of the four fundamental forces of nature, gravity might
be the least understood and yet the one with which we are most
intimate. On Gravity combines depth with accessibility to take us
on a compelling tour of Einstein's general theory of relativity. A.
Zee begins with the discovery of gravity waves, then explains how
gravity can be understood in comparison to other classical field
theories, presents the idea of curved spacetime, and explores black
holes and Hawking radiation. Zee travels as far as the theory
reaches, leaving us with tantalizing hints of the unknown, from the
intransigence of quantum gravity to the mysteries of dark matter.
Infused with Zee's signature warmth and fresh style, On Gravity
opens a unique pathway to comprehending relativity, gravity,
spacetime, and the workings of the universe.
